AI Subwoofer enclosure designer

[BoomBoomBoxBuilder]

Hi everyone, I made a custom GPT on OpenAI, just search for BoomBoomBoxBuilder,. You can ask it questions or you can have it guide you step by step through the entire process. It doesn't matter if you've never designed an enclosure before or if you've designed 100. It will also provide detailed graphs, charts, simulations, 3D rendering, Cut Sheet and much more. Just ask. It uses WinISD, REW and more to help design the most optimal enclosure possible for your build. Please try out and leave me a review, I'm always open to suggestions or ideas to make it better. Thank you guys.

Too difficult to navigate. Tried going to chat but asked me to upgrade instead. No bueno compadre.

Ya man. I felt like I wasted my time. I was very interested in this.

I remember an old site that was simple but useful. You could input the specfications of any box and it would tell you the vent frequency. You could modify the vent or box parameters to get the desired frequency on the fly. I would modify boxes using this site.

I tried the link, I got cold feet just being asked to "sign in or sign up". Other comments made me curious.
I just wanted to look it over, not sign up.

I did sign up but when it asked me to upgrade just to check out that Boombox "account", I quit it. To unsubscribe I had to ask chatgpt how to do it because there was no clear pathway to do so. After following directions it warned me that I will never ever ever be able to sign up again using my email if I proceeded to unsubscribe. It sounded like a desperate attempt to keep enrollment up; very sus.

I knew this day would come. AI will replace everything we can do. It may or may not work right now, but eventually this one or someone’s will with probably great efficiency.

To make it the best, just make it full environmental. You’d have to add vehicles and stuff in there, at least vehicle geometry and volumes and if you can get 3d waveform mapping, idk what’s it’s technically called, but just where you can show high pressure zones in vehicles depending on frequency applied; the whole environment is the box. With simulations, the more metrics you can add, the better. Sound is the whole environment, when it comes to actually making bass work for what people want. I’m sure all those calculations would be a lot of work to do, just somebody probably will, eventually. I’m not even sure what all it does or doesn’t do, just I know being to actually see pressure zones and vehicles responses combined with enclosure types and position/layout in the vehicle, that’ll be gold, if it can be easy-ish to use.

Seems to work great. Thanks! Here a transcript.

Me: I need plans for a single vented 10" enclosure that is tuned to 32hz. One Sundown Audio E10 v3 d4 ohm is the sub that will be used. Please give specs as well as a cutout list and the plywood size board needed to make all the cuts.


ChatGPT:
For a single vented 10" enclosure tuned to 32Hz for a Sundown Audio E10 v3 D4 subwoofer, here are the detailed plans, specs, cutout list, and material requirements.

### Enclosure Specifications:
- **Subwoofer Model**: Sundown Audio E10 v3 D4
- **Type**: Vented (Ported)
- **Tuning Frequency**: 32 Hz
- **Internal Volume**: 1.25 cubic feet (after displacement of subwoofer and port)

### Dimensions:
- **External Dimensions**:
- Width: 15 inches
- Height: 15 inches
- Depth: 14.5 inches
- **Internal Dimensions**:
- Width: 13.5 inches
- Height: 13.5 inches
- Depth: 13 inches

### Port Specifications:
- **Type**: Slot port
- **Port Dimensions**:
- Width: 1.5 inches
- Height: 13.5 inches
- Length: 25 inches (includes the bend)

### Cut List:
1. **Front & Back Panels**: 15" x 15" (2 pieces)
2. **Top & Bottom Panels**: 15" x 14.5" (2 pieces)
3. **Side Panels**: 13.5" x 14.5" (2 pieces)
4. **Port Panels**:
- First segment: 1.5" x 13.5" (1 piece)
- Second segment: 1.5" x 11.75" (1 piece)
- Third segment: 1.5" x 7.75" (1 piece)

### Material Requirements:
- **Material**: 3/4" MDF or Plywood
- **Board Size**: 4' x 8' sheet

### Construction Tips:
1. **Cut the MDF or plywood as per the dimensions listed in the cut list.**
2. **Assemble the box by attaching the front, back, top, bottom, and side panels using wood glue and screws.**
3. **Ensure all joints are sealed properly to avoid air leaks.**
4. **Assemble the port inside the enclosure using the port panels.**
5. **Cut out the subwoofer hole on the front panel according to the subwoofer's cutout diameter (9.25 inches).**
6. **Mount the subwoofer in the cutout hole and secure it with screws.**
7. **Optionally, add internal bracing for additional support and to minimize vibrations.**
8. **Finish the enclosure with carpet, paint, or vinyl as desired.**

Jmho but until it approximates an actual modeled and rendered design it looks like a box calc program to me with a few bells and whistles.

If it modeled it up custom then produced a rendered result with cutsheet like this, that would be slick... this was all done with free software and screenshots.

What free software is that one you're using? I ve just played around with subbox.pro, its ok but kinda lacking.

What free software is that one you're using? I ve just played around with subbox.pro, its ok but kinda lacking.

The free software I use is Torres to rough in the overall size, Winisd or BBpro to model volumes, velocities, response etc. I can also to some extent simulate cabin gain as related to response due to extensive experience and testing. To truly learn Winisd or BBpro requires real world results and testing in my opinion. I am still learning myself but have 10yr+ just using modeling programs (car audio 35yr hobby) Modeling is not the mechanical drawings btw. A great many people think subbox is modeled since it has a rendered 3D model that can be changed. I am sorry if you think that is modeling as related to sub enclosures... it is not.

I don't whip up generic manufacturer recommended boxes unless asked to do so. I usually take Musical taste, vehicle, power, electrical, goals... etc into consideration when contacted about a design. Its a process that usually requires some back and forth.

The rendered mechanical drawings are done with Sketchup. Its not hard to learn but can be tricky.

Every step of the process is backed up by pencil on paper or a calculator to verify volumes and displacements before I model it one last time for final tuning. 6ths can be fun, I try to nail a 1/2 octave spread on tuning exactly in most cases. Weird, but it keeps my mind active figuring displacements/volumes while I finish up the last modeling session before finalizing the design.

A designer can use his extensive experience to help in most cases, knowledge is power. Drawing up boxes is easy. Its putting it all together in a way that best performs in a specific vehicle with a specific goal.
